Rep Power: 0 01 LX Gauges, Interior Lights, Warning Beeps
Hello all,
I have been having several issues with my 2001 Honda Civic LX. When I first bought the car, the interior dome lights, both the front and middle one went out. I changed the fuse but it kept blowing so I just left it alone and dealt with having no lights. About 6 months later, my gauges started going haywire going down to 0 and then shooting up to the highest numbers while I was driving. I would turn the car off and back on and the problem would cease for a few days. After awhile the gauges would just stay at 0 and would not work unless I hit the plastic cover over the gauges until they came back on. The problem became more and more frequent. Now, the beeping noise that used to occur when I would leave my keys in the ignition or headlights on doesn't happen anymore. Anyone have any ideas? Any help would be super appreciated. Does it sound like these problems are connected are would they all be separate issues?

Since you took out the dome fuse.... look at the black rubber covered plunger switch on drivers side door jamb. Swap it out with passenger side and see if warnings return.
Clusters going whacko are common on early models, and it would appear to be a poor connection (solder or connector) since you can make it return.
